I'm not Grevillea fililoba

Is there anyone on the forum who recognises this Grevillea. I was under the impression it was G. fililoba - 'Ellendale" until I found that Ellendale flower is red all over.

Any clues on this one - Note the divided leaf..

Nope. Certainly isn't grevillea 'Ellendale'. I have Ellendale and it's nothing like that, in fact I've never seen one with that particular shade of pink before but then there is so many on the market these days. Sorry justcorreas, can't help you with that one. Looks a nice one though.

This looks a lot like a grevillea in my neighbour's garden (on our property line actually) I have the husband (who doesn't know) asking the wife who may know what it is called. I can't promise a name and that it is indeed the same grevillea, but will take a picture tommorow to start with....
till then

Ok, the neighbours remember planting it but don't have a clue what it is. The picture is an image I had on file, a bit close. It doesn't appear to be the same plant in any case.
I did read (can't remember where) - that Grevillea fililoba can have flowers ranging from pink to red. Sorry can't back it up though.
If my grevillea isn't the same as the previous - does anyone know what it is?

Well, I've been able to get the Grevillea in my original posting (above) positively identified.

It's name is Grevillea 'Rosy Posy' a select form of Grevillea rosmarinifolia.

Aeor - Not sure if your neighbour's is same plant - mine have very large showy racemes of flowers.
